LYONS DESIGN
Bespoke surface finishes in Dublin and across Ireland
Lyons Design is a Dublin studio founded by Barry Lyons and trained under masters of the craft in Ireland and abroad. We apply microcement, liquid metal and Venetian plaster by hand — from seamless bathroom floors to full restaurant and retail fit-outs.
No two surfaces are ever the same. Each project is tailored to the space, the brief and the client's vision.
Specialist craft, built to last
Hand-applied by a specialist
Every surface is applied by Barry Lyons, trained internationally with Metal Monkey Design and LiquidMetalFX.
No strip-out required
Finishes bond to existing tiles, concrete and plasterboard — a room transformed in days.
Made for the Irish climate
Sealed microcement for wet rooms, mould-resistant lime plaster, metal finishes that weather outdoors.
Homes to flagship stores
Private residences, restaurants, hotels and retail — bespoke finishes at every scale.
“Barry is a magician. Whether working on a large scale commercial project, or creating something one of a kind, his work has been integral to bringing our flagship store to life.”
“When it comes to bespoke Verometal painting, Barry Lyons is our trusted expert. His craftsmanship, attention to detail and deep understanding of Verometal finishes have been invaluable to our projects.”
Frequently asked questions
What finishes do you offer?
Three hand-applied finishes: microcement for seamless floors, walls and worktops; liquid metal for real metal coatings and rust effects; and Venetian plaster for polished lime walls.
Where in Ireland do you work?
We're based in Dublin and work nationwide — regularly in Cork, Galway, Limerick and beyond. Travel is included in every quote.
Do you take on commercial projects?
Yes — restaurants, hotels, bars, retail and flagship stores, from a single feature wall to a full fit-out.
Can you apply over existing surfaces?
In most cases. Microcement bonds directly to existing tiles, concrete and plasterboard, so a room can change in days.
